Lepidodendron yorkianum from the Carboniferous (from #BritishGeologicalSurvey R.L. Kidston photo collection). Looking similar to one of today's clubmosses http://geoscenic.bgs.ac.uk/asset-bank/action/viewAsset?id=63645

One thing leads to another in an archive. This was the end result, finding a very interesting geological map "MS Geological Map of Northern Scotland" "Made during a tour of the Highlands in 1827" by Murchison and possibly Sedgewick. It is thought most of the notes are by Murchison himself.

An early digitization project at the #BritishGeologicalSurvey was the Hugh O'Neill collection. This is a typical photo: BGS photo number P539527 Stone Firms Limited (Bath and Portland) underground workings, Old Cleft Mine, Box. Working on Bath Stone near Corsham Wiltshire. Lifting blocks with eye bolt. #archives
